A Spectral Analysis of Laser Induced Fluorescence of Diatomic Iodine
written by S. Burcin Bayram and M. V. Freamat
When optically excited, diatomic iodine absorbs in the 490 to 650-nm visible region of the spectrum and, after radiative relaxation, it displays an emission spectrum of discrete vibrational bands at moderate resolution. This makes laser-induced fluorescence spectrum of molecular iodine especially suitable to study the energy structure of homonuclear diatomic molecules at room temperature. In this spirit, we present a rather straightforward and inexpensive experimental setup and the associated spectral analysis which provides an excellent exercise of applied quantum mechanics fit for advanced laboratory courses. The students would be required to assign spectral lines, fill a Deslandres table, process the data to estimate the harmonic and anharmonic characteristics of the ground vibronic state involved in the radiative transitions, and henceforth calculate a set of molecular constants and discuss a model of molecular vibrator.
